W'liKN 1 coiiiinciiccd tilt" present Work in l^Ol), I did so midcr the ini|ir('ssiiiii
tii;it Jjepidopterists i^'enerally \vonhl be as iirateful 1o me, for the time and
ial)()nr w Incli I devoted to it, as I have always felt to those who have assisted
in acenrately delineatini^ these heantiful insects whieli all admire : from May
1S()5 (when 1 first beu:an to publish deseri])tions and illustrations of Exotie
Lepido])tera), to July 1873, I had added 708 'j;ood species to those previously
known to Science, of these 57 Avere described lor the first time in " Lepidoptera
i]xotica"; 1 had i^'ivcn representations of ()7(5 s])ecies, illustrated by 8-") I figures.
2'M) of wliicli spi'cies, illustrated l)y ;>-")S li'^'ures, had appeared in the prrsciit
Work: notwithstandini^ this, so far from receiviuii^ the "blessings" to Avhicli
.1 have referred in my " Advertisement, " I have met with the greatest discour-
aucment ; in fact, excepting from the Presidents of the Entomological Society,
my kind friend Mr. Druce, my self-sacrificing publisher Mr. Janson, and a
( lioMii few at home and abroad, my evening labours through eight weary
years have elicited reproaches rather than thanks; and this AVork, instead of
rrceiving fair supi)ort from Lepidopterists, has been a burden both to Mr.
•lanson and myself.
Having then given a sufficient reason why " Lepidoptera Exotica" sliould
terminate with the first volum<>, I will now proceed to give a further explana-
tion of the motives which have induced me to abandon my former Avell-meant
l)ut rash determination to figure all the Lepidoptera w hich I described : — In
the first place, I lound that, as I advanced in the study of the Order, I was
enabled by degrees to comprehend more easily, without the aid of illustrations,
tile descriptions of others; and I began to see that figiu-cs were not such an
al)s()lute necessity as I once imagined them to be: in the second place, I found
that so many Collections which arrived in this country teemed with novelties,
that either many beautiful and distinct species must remain unnamed in our
cabinets, or the bright dream of figuring the whole of them must be dissii)ated ;
of these two evils I w'as consti-ained to choose the less, the consequence of
which has been the publication of several papers, containing numerous descrip-
tions of new species, none of which I have promised to figure, and many of
which I ihoIkiMv ni'\ it >.hall I'murc : \\\r species which I liaxc (h'--crihcil ii]i Id
tlie |>reseiit tiiu(> aiuoiiut to S27, ol' tliesc <)() have apijcai-ed fur the lirst lime in
•' l/'pi(h>ptera Exotica;" 711 haviiiii" l)e.'ii lii^ured by myself, 31:5 of them,
ilhistrate.l h\ I f.) liniires, in tiiis \\(Mk.
It can. I tiiink, scarcely l)c denied that, as a book of rcfei-ence. this \\"i)rk
is not entirely valueless, when it is considered that, in addition to a complete
illustrated Monoi;rai)li of the ucniis C"/fl(fi\>/ns; it contains representations of
no less than 117 u'cnera. se\cral '>[ them |ii'e\ imisly iiiiknoun to Science: 1 feel
therefore, notwitlistandinu' the cnhl water which lias ln-en lavislily cast ni)on
my nndertakinii'. that 1 have, in a measiirc, advanced the stud_\ dl' this most
attractive branch nf l:nt(imoliii;-y.
[ now turn to the pleasant task of expressing' my uratitude to those -who
have kindly assisted nie with su])|eets tor my illustrations, foremost amongst
whom I am indebted to ll(n-bert Drnee, I'.sc^., W. A\'ilson Saunders, Esq., and
Andrew Swanzy, Esq., Avho have at all timi's allowed me to select what 1 chose
fi-dm their extensive Collections, and who have ever shown a warm interest in
my AVork : my thanks are also due to 11. Ansell, Esq., E. Brow u. 1>([., 'I'.
Chapman, Esq., !*]. Charleswcn-th, Escj., the Rev. T. Cornthwaite, W. L. M,
D' Urban, Esq., E. C. Heed, Esq., W. C. lEewitson, Esq., E. W. -lauson, Esq.,

Esq., the Rev. F. A. Walk(>r, .Mfred Wallace, Esq., Lord AValsingham, C.
AVard, Esq., aud II. AVhitely, liS([., all of whom have lent or given me
specimens.
I have iiol followed the plan adopted by Alessrs. Edwards, llewitson, and
Ward, of leavinn- the pages and plates unmimlxn'ed, as 1 have myself experi-
enced nuich dillicully iu referring to their descriptions and ii^ures until the
completion of a volume; I have also l)ei'u nnwillinn' to put myself under the
necessity of iinuriiiL'' s])ecies of the same u'citus on one plale.

The great necessity for rocotjni/able lii^iires of Lepidoptera is a tliiiiiif whicli,
in coiniuon with otluM- working Entomologists, I liave long and diM>2)ly felt.
Complex descriptions without illustrations of any kind to assist in their deter-
mination, arc, to say the least, a severe tax upon the patience and ingenuity of
all who wish satisfactorily to interpret them.
That magnificetit Woik wliicli the Fki.dkrs have so recently jjroduced, from
the number of its minutt-ly exhaustive descriptions of unfigui-ed species,
destroys the pleasure which one would otherwise derive from a contemplation
of its very beautiful plates. The temptation to describe new and striking
sjiecies, with or without figures, is doubtless strongly felt by all who love to
call the beautiful their own ; and in conunou with others, I must plead
guilty to having been betrayed into it : this is however an error of which
I have long repented, and long desinnl to atone for ; but up to the present
time no opportunity has offered of wliicli 1 could avail myself.
Through the kindness of yiv. .Ianson I am at length enal)I('d to commence
a "Work which will, I trust, entitle me to those blessings which my esteemed
friend Mr. IIewitson has so often assured me are the reward of a recognizable
figure. I can only add that it will be my endeavour throughout the i^'escnt
undertaking to ])roduee characteristic' copies of the originals, and render the
accompanying descriptions as definite as possible.
The object of this Work, which will be issued in Qiiarlerli/ Parts, is
to give representations of all such new or little known species as may be con-
sidered of sufficient interest to merit attention.

I^owe ; it ia only surpassed in beauty, in its own jicculiar group, by tbe P. .Mitgellmmn of Felder, sent from
the Philippines by Dr. Semper. One of the most striking charactei-s observable in P. Mti-amla is tlio
dLstinclness of the deep purple gloss which in certain lights overspreads the entire surface of the front
wings of the male : this sjjecies seems to find its true position between /'. Helena and P. AnijihriiiiiiK,
the form of the front wings being most like tlie former, the striation of the wings more nearly resembling
llie latter species : six or eight specimens of P. .Minindt came in the same collection from Mr. Lowe,

Cienilen, from wliiuh its smaller size and more lilac colouring readily distinguish it ; it also diH'ers in

reaching the inner margin of the wing ; the mai-ginal band is narrower, the central band of the hind-

Muiseum, from Venezuela and Peru, and (excepting that it is darker and has a black spot on the upper
surfaceof the hindwings) differs little from the male: this insect differs from E. Westirooiliiiemnlc in its

Tliis species, recently obtaineil from the Collection of T. P. Dossctor, Esq., is intermediate between
C. Tridntes and C. Miii-crinn : there seems to be little doubt that it is from Ashanti, as the other
insects with which it is said to have come appear to be from that locality.

T. A'lii'iii'i ami T. C/rupalni arc sci iiiiuli alikr upon tliu under surface, that, but for the; lutally
ilitt'erc'Ut form of their wings, one would ahuost hesitate to consider them distinct species. Tlie
distinctions between 7'. A'</i>i)i<( and T. Zippara are much more apparent, although these two species
inhabit the same district. In the latter case, however, the ditt'erences of colour are chieHj- contineil
to the upper surface of the wing, so that we may, 1 think, safely conclude that for some reason or
other the retention of the under surface coloration is 'of importance to this little group of species. 1
have no doubt that, when the economy of tropical butterflies is better known, we shall discover
dis"uises in very many more of the butterfly patterns than, in oni jiresent state of ignorance, we could
conceive possible. With regaril to the parallel resemblances in the ditterent genera of the Hdiconinw
two ideas have occurred to me, which, though they may be but " chiklish guesses," I think there can
be no harm in stating. First, it is within the range of possibility that these butterflies were originally
modified to resemble certain flowers, and the latter subsequently becoming e.xtinct, necessitated the
development of a new protective agency — namely, the acrid fluid with which the Heliconinm are now
provided. In the second place it may be that only one genus originally possessed the protective fluid,
and was the model upon which the other genera were formed, but since the latter were then |n-eserved
by their colours only, individuals must occasionally have been destroyed ; and, to the e.\teiit of that
destruction, there was a necessity for additional protection : thus a physical as well as merely external
resemblance may have been tiie ultimate consecjuence. Two notes by Jlr. Swainson in his " Illustra-
tions" somewhat confirm me in this view, inasmuch as he shows that certain Heliconoid moths have
acciuired all the defences Kininion to liie buttei flies which th(?y re-semblc. He .says, — " In their slow
rti"ht. Ion" transparent wings, ami jironeness to imitate death on being handled, they otter a most
beautiful analogy to the Heliconian butterflies." ■' They fly slowly and heavily during the middle of
the day, and, on the least toueli, enunlcMleil iliMtli. M">t of the species, when handled, discharge
from their buily a limwn li(|mir liki' their pn)t(jty|ies lie- /f'/;r<„i,'i/(i'."

fact to he much (leph:)re<l that in ahnost every instance in which Lcpidopterists have professe<l to
represent botli sexes of a CdUidrijas they liave grievously erred. Jliil)ner, for instance, on one of his
plates, figures the males of two species as sexes of one. Poey, again, in his little pamjihlet on the
I.epiilo])tera of Cuba, gives Cramer's /'. MttrcHlina as the female of his new species C. Orbin.*
Cnimer figures the male C. L'lrra as the female of C. Euhuh; and so on. These errors, therefoiv,
render it exceedingly desirable that the true sexes of each separate species should be brought together
npon one plate, and this it will be my end<'avour to effect in the present revision of the genus.

This species may eventually turn out to be an extreme form of C. Crncalr. The male, however,
can always Vie distinguished from yellow specimens of that species by its very narrow black costal
border. C. I'liligeioi, on the contrary, cannot be thus separated from C. C'uh'll'i, for the latter species
varies immensely in this very character, and the female of C. I'hieijcnx not being known, there remains
nothing to distinguish it from yellow varieties of C. Cntilii.

C Scijlln is a much niori> varialilc species than C. Gorr/ophone, the males even ditl'ering con-
siderably both on the iippi-r and under surfac(^s ; a striking variety of this sex (which I regret to say
cannot rank as a distinct species) has been figured as C Etrxin by Mr. Hewitson, who gives the
following as the characters by which it may be distinguished from C. Sctjlla, namely, that it is " of paler
colour and spotless on the undersiile." In the British Museum wo have a male agreeing exactly with
Mr. Ilewitson's ligure, from Port Essington; a second from X. Australia, which has both of the
characters mentioned above, Lut dilfers from C. Elesia in having the black border of the ujiper surface
dentate-sinuate as in C. Sci/lla ; and a third from Champion Bay, which has the black border of
' '. Elcatd but the under surface of C. IScyllu, tlie markings being all strongly delined. Even the brighter
golden orange upon the upper surface of the hindwings will not serve to distinguish this form, since the
specimens from Cidebes are generally darker in tint than those from Java ; and a female in Mr.
Wallace's collection from Lomboek has the hindwings of tlie same tint with that of C. Etesin.
Eabricius describes his C. tjornrlla as " alls rotundatis intcgerrimis fulvis : anticis sujira albis,
margine nigi-o. Habitat Tranquebaria;,'" thus discriiuiiiatiiig between it and his C. Sct/tht, the description
of which 1 have given under C. Goir/ojilioiic
The larva of G. Scijlla, according to Dr. llorslield, feeds on various sjiecies of Cassia, particularly
''. Fistula and C. Ohtmifolia,\)\x\, is occasionally found on other plants. It is most abundant in the
.?arly part of the rainy season.
The larva and ])upa are figured on ])1. 1 of llic lirst vohinn' of llorslield and Moore's Catalogue of
the Lepidoptera of the East India Company.

discal band of the same colour.
Femuh. Wings above white, marginal banding wider and paler tlian in male, in frontwings
considerably widened from end of costal nervure to third median branch so as to enclose iive more or

This species maybe distinguished from small specimens of C. Chri/seis by the more rounded apex
and outer margin of its frontwings, the narrower and more regular brown border, (the macular
expansion of which in the female only e.'ctends to the third median branch), the greater extent of
black on the nervures of male, and the paler tint of the under surface.

Drury remarks of his /'. Vhrijiscis that ''it seems to be a distinct species from that described by
Linna'us, in his Syst. Nat. page 763, No. 1)8 ( Pijranfhe) there being no red or silver spots on the
underside," there is no doubt that he is right in this conjecture, doubtless the P. Pyranihe of Linnreus
is the species both sexes of which are figured by Hiibner under the name of Mtmclpiura fugax Mlnii'i
(Samml. Ex. Schm. 1, pi. 114), and identical with the P. Minna of Herbst it Jablonsky.

Dr. IJdi.-iduval in all probability followed Faliricius, when describing the female of his C. Floivlht,
but had he po.ssessed the same opportunitj' that I have of examining the Fabrician type, he would have
discovered that the true FloreUu was a faded and worn female of his C. Rhadin ; in fiict, Swainson is
l)erfectly in the right when he says that the .sexes of his V. Pyrnie are identical in j)attern and
colouration.
The Fabrician description of C. F/om/la says "alls posticis subtus punctis tribus argenteis" which
would at once distinguish it from the female of C. Pt/rciir.
J[r. liowker states (Trimen's Ehop. Afr. Austr., ]i. 3.'!2) that tlic species is numerous about ^larch.
appearing in one day by thousands, it is rare by the middle of April. Easily caught, settling upon

In the " Konjjl. Wet. Akad. Forhandl," fur hS'iS, Wallengreii characterizes a iii'W genus uniler
the name of Tlii:<i>i'i : but in his paper on the Jvhoiialoceni of (Jall'mria, he describeil the genus
uniler the name of Phjchiiplfnjj- : as no reason is assigned for this alteration I cannot follow him.
In describing the above llenus, AVallengrcn invents a system of nomenclature entirely dilfcrent to
th.it in "eiieiid use, and calls each nervure a costa ; the costil- of the frontwings are counted upwards
from the inner to the anterior margin of the wing, and are stated to be ten in number, whilst
Calliiln/(ix, the most nearly allied genus, is said to have nine; the actual difference in neuration between
the two genera is one of position, not of number ; some of the diameters distinguishing I'ti/r/iopti'ii/.i-
from Culli'lri/it-i, when put into the usual form, are good, others bad ; for instance, the character of
a patch of line bristles at base of hindwings, is common to CalUJri/ut: (See Drury on C. ('hrijKii.i
and Trimen on ('. Fliri'lla) ; the costal nervure of hindwings much arched ; the lii-st subcostal
arched, emitted from centre of its neryure, and running to apex ; the straight fold from base through
whole length of cell and between di.seoidal and third median branches to outer margin, are all
cliaract<'rs common to CulUdri/ttx : the following good characters remain : —
/(. ir. The second subcostal and discoidal branches springing from nearly the .same place so as to
reduce disco-cellular to a point.
/ (f. Upper discoidal not branching from subcostal but emitted close to it at end of cell ; second

Tliia novelty is of great interest from tho fact of its belonging to a small but conspicuous genus
uf the Chanuces group ; I have therefore felt great pleasure in naming it after its cajjtor, Mr. Herbert
T. Ussher, the present Administrator of the Gold Coast ; I must hero also take tlie oi)i)ortunity of
acknowledging my obligations to Jlr. Swanzy for tho use wliich he has so frequently allowed me
to make of lus Collection.
Tho above species is perfectly distinct from Cramer's P. Dcciiis, which M. Lucas describes at
p. 122 of liis work ; I suspect that the Ndolet tint in the frontwing band of his figure is incorrect, and
intended to make it correspond to some extent with his description, which is probably a compilation.

I have examined specimens from the following localities : —
?, Sierra Leone, (Foxcroft and Monjan) ; Ashauti, B. M. ; Senegal, ColL Druce ; Abomey, Coll.
Saunders ; Jladagascar, Coll. T. De Grey.
Dr. Boisduval seems to be the only Lepidopterist, who has been favoured witli a sight of the
male of this species, it is in none of the collections to which I have access, and (so far as I can judge
from the writings of Messrs. Trimen, Wallengren, and others), has not made its appearance since the
publication of the Species GiSneral ; indeed Dr. Wallengren, in the Svenska Handlingar, evidently
■•■'nsiders the male C. Pijrene to be that sex of C. Florella.
In the Species General, Dr. Boisduval, described the typical female, C. Florella (under its true
name), as the female of C. Pyrene, in all probability compiling his description from that of Fabricius :
Mr. Trimen in his " Rhopalocera Africaj Australis" translated Dr. Boisduval's description, with the
following remark : — " Having only seen males of this species, I am obliged to borrow the above
description of the female from M. Boisduval's work ;" under the localities, however, I find " Interior
of South Africa, Sierra Leone, St. Vincent (Cape Verd Islands). — Coll. Brit. Mus.," which proves to
me that my friend Trimen, (like Mr. Doubleday and myself), was under the inlluence of the Boisdu-
vahan description, when he examined the Museum specimens (See localities at p. 44 of this work).
In a foot-note to the same page, however, Mr. Trimen says, "A $ of Florella, in Mr. D'Urban's
collection confirms Mr. Swainson's statement, being identical in colour and marking with the (J ;" I
mention the above facts to explain a note in my Fabrician Catalogue, which Mr. Trimen, in his paper,
recently read before the Entomological Society, seems to have misunderstood ; at p. 224, I observed
" The female is much like a large pale variety of the C. Rlmdia of Mr. Doubleday's List ; " unfor-
tunately the sheet was printed off before I discovered my error, which I corrected in the next page,
" Callii.lrijas Eliiulia, Boisd. (Florella Fabr. ) ;" I had no intention of suggesting the identity of two
apparently so distinct species, as C. Pyrcve and C. Florella, nor do I now think, considering the
totally diJlerent colouring and pattern of the two, and the fact that the sexes of both have been
described, that the capture of a single ill-assorted pair is a sufficient reason for uniting them as modifica-
tions of one variable form : I cannot help thinking that the intermediate form mentioned by Mr. Trimen
must have been C. Thaurama.
58 FAMILY papii.tonid.t:.
Signer Bertoloni received C Florella $ from Inhainbano, and observing its near resemblance to
the P. Afairrlliiia of Cramer, came to the conclusion that the latter species was indigenous to the east
coast of Africa.
Mt. Trimen remarks (Rhop. Afr., Austr) : — " I once saw this butterfly at Knysna, on the 11th of
March, 1859, flying rajjidly over the marshes near the river. I chased it for some time, but when close
upon it, by an unlucky fall gave the insect time for so long a start, that it was useless to try further
pursuit. An aged specimen of the female, from the same locality was given me by a lady who took it
there some years ago. The insect is cons]iicuous in flight, owing to its bright-yellow colour."
The chrysalis figured was sent with the pirfoct insect from Sierra Leone by llr. Foxcroft.

Ur. Boisduval rightly observes that tlic indiviihials from North America have the wings less
rounded than those from South America, but I cannot agree with him in considering the Southern
form a local variety of C. EuhuJe, I would rather call it a representative form of the latter, since the
female differs constantly in its smaller size, deeper or paler* colouring, and more strongly defined
markings.
Messrs. Smith and Abbot figure both sexes of C. Euhiile in their " Lepidopterous Insects of
Georgia," with the food-plant Cassia chamw-crista ; they call attention to " the conformity of colours
between the flowers of this plant, and the fly bred upon it ; " the following observations on the transfor-
mations of this (figured on the plate) are added " one of them spun itself up the 30th of August,
changed the next day, and the perfect insect appeared September 10th; another spun on the 23rd
of September, changed the 24th, and came out on the Gth of October.
A wliite form occurs at llomluras aud Venezuela.

The Plia-hin Eiibiile of Hiibner, (Samml. ex. Schniett. i, pi. l.H, 180.")) represents the two
common forms of female C Sennw ; we have examples of both from llnndurai*.
The I'ltpiliii I'omomi of Donovan, which I have given in the al)ove synonymy, and which
(iomcwhat resembles the C. OrbU 9 of Poey's plate, ajipcars to be a slight variety of C. Seiniw 9, it can

si'urcfly be the female of C. Orhis since it does not possess the clmracters common to the Oodarlinnnx
group, and also because the true female of C. Orhis is in Mr. Druce's Collection from Cuba, and is
perfectly distinct in form, n)arking, and coloration.
The C. YamaiM, of Rcakirt, is described as being nearly allied to C. Pyrnuthe to which it bears
considerable resemblance ; indeed, I am informed by Mr. Edwards, of West Virginia, who has kinilly
eommunicaled with Mr. Reakirt respecting the species, that the description of C Yamana was delayed
until the arrival of a second e.\aniple from the same locality, in order that Mr. Reakirt wight be sure of
the correctness of its hal)itat ; under these circumstances I could not well have referred it to C. Scnim
had I not received evidence which leads rae to suspect that that species has not been correctU
identiKed by American authors.
It is not impossible that C. Ynmana may be an alliino female of C. Dnjn or C. Trite, either of
which would bear a close resemblance (especially on the upper surface) to C. Pijranthe, however
without examining the type, or a figure of it, it is impossible to do more than guess at the relations
of the sjiccies.
])r. IJoisduval, in his Hist. (U:i\. Lup. Am. Sept. remarks that the P. Senuce of Linna-us is a
variety of C. EuhuJe which has no black points at the extremity of the frontwings ; this is far from
being the case, since C Scnum invariably has the black spots well-defined whilst in C. Eiibule they arc
often entirely wanting. JIany naturalists seem to have observed the close resemblance existing
between C. Sfinna: and C Marcellenu yet almost all have agreed in separating them as distinct species ;
thus, Mr. James Duncan in his ^'aturalist's Librarj', vol. 5, p. 122, says that C Euhule {\\\nc\i most
old authors considered synonymous with C. Senmc) " so closely resembles C. M(a-ccllina that it is
possible they would still have continued to be confounded, as they were by the earlier entomologists,
had not the different appearance of the caterpillar in<lioated their essential distinction ; " he describes
the caterpillar of C. EubiiJe as "green, covered with small black granules, and having a yellow line
along each side, surmounted by another of a blue colour. Donovan, however, tells us that " the
specific character of Pajjilio Soma' consists chiefly, according to Linnpeus, in having the double spot in
the centre of each wing of a feri'iiginous colour, while in Papilio Marcellina that characteristic mark
has the exact appearance of two approximating spots of molten silver. The tips of the wings arc
sometimes spotted as in Marcellina, and are sometimes destitute of spots : " Herbst, with more
shrewdness than either of the above worthies obseives that " P. Senna' is so like P. Marcellina that it
can scarcely be regarded as a distim-t siiecics."
Sep]) in his figure of Papiliu IIi/j)i;riei omits the black border on outer margin of frontwing.s, but
on the under surface figure, which also shows part of the upper surface, this border is put in : he gives
the following account of the transformations, " It was on the 1st of March that we found this
cateipillar, of a blui.sh green and s])eckled, on the underside of the leaves of the plant which at
•Surinam bears the Dutch nanie of Ivingwornikruid ; as it appeared to us to be full grown we ex-
pected soon to see it change to a chrysalis, indeed, four days afterwards it began to fix its body and
spin a transverse band over it ; after its colour had been altered to a shining and transparent green,
on the following day it changed into a red chrysalis prettily striped with yellow, nine days afterwards
the butterfly onii^rged from it."
Under C. Eubule Sepp gives us a second ai'cuunt tlius : "The green caterpillar of our ])]ate very
iMUih resembles the cateriiillars of tiie cabbage Ijulterlly of Europe, and is scarcely less eouimon tlian
FAMILY NYilPHALIDjE. fil
them, it lives on the leaves of the llijpfrinim bacelfirum, known in Surinam under the name of
Ringwurrakruid, and on various sjiccies of Cagsin ; it is met with at various times of the year, it grows
rapidly and does not change colour until about to undergo its mctaiuorphnsis. then it assumes a shining
yellowish tint, the chrysalides are either red or green."
The most quaint descri])tion of C. Sennce, in all its stages is to bo found in SK.an's History of
Jamaica (p. 212, 172r>) as follows —
The Common Yellow Caterpillar.
" Its bigness is as that of a goose-quill, it is about an inch long, of a yellowisli colour, haviiij.'
here and there black spots on it, after it attains it,s duo growth it becomes the —
AuRKLiA Triangularis Purpurea, Lineis Lutkis Ndtatis,
The Common Triaxqclar Aurelia.
This is almost triangular, about half-an-inch long, and one-fourth part of an inch broad at
broadest, having here and there some angles and eminences, and is sharp at both ends ; it is of a
purple colour with some j-ellow streaks. When the worm or catei pillar has fed itself full, it creeps U-
a place free from wind, and there fa-stens one end to the under part of a stone, twig, &c., and the other
end hangs in a string like that of a spider's web. where it takes this figure and comes out —
The Common Yellow Butterfly.
Tliis was about an inch long from the head to the tail, about twice as much from wing to wing
.'xtended ; it had six feet, three of each side, it had two brown antennve, three quarters of an inch long
went out of its brown head, and two large brown globular eyes. It had hanging out of its moutli a
long spiral twirling Proboscis, of a brown colour ; the body was covered over with a long yellow down
and the wngs with a shorter, there were in the middle part of each of the four wings, two silver spots
or eyes, inclosed in a brown circle, or Iris, besides several other brown spots or lines, here and there,
especially on the margin of the wings on the upper sides. On that pair of wings nearest to the head,
or the upper ]>air, were by the outside, two brown spots as big as a large pin's head.
The Krncn of this butterfly above described, Xo. 1, feeds on what they call here Wild Indign.
They are the most common of all butterflies."
The figures accompauying the above description are tliose iiuoted by Linna?us for his C. Seniue.

The above may be nothing more than a variety of C. Sennw, but at present I have not siitticient
"vidence to allow me to form a definite opinion as to their identity or non-identity so that I am obliged
to kee]) them separate: Dr. Herrich-Schiiflor remarks (Corr. Blatt, d. Zool. min. Ver. Kegensberg,
p. 16'J, n. C, 1864), " It will surely be no longer doubted that Marcellina and Drija Boisd., are not
specifically distinct," he does not liowever state his reasons for arriving at this conclusion.
In Madame Merian's Insects of Surinam, a female Cullidnjos is figured (which appears to be
C. Drijii) concerning the metamorphoses of which the following remarks are made — " The yellow
caterpillai-s ate the leaves (" Zoeteboontjes") they had black feet and black spines on the back ; I have
had more than a hundred, which all died, because the leaves of this tree become hard and dry as soon
iis they are broken off, and therefore cannot be eaten by the cater])iUars ; however, I had one on the
IGlh .June, 1770, which became a pupa similar to the one at the end of the tendril, and at tlie end of
. I line came out a beautiful butterfly like the one which is here represented flying and at rest."

Til is species seems to be stiU rare in Collections. I have generally found it represented by

throughout the genus of similarity in males of allied forms, with dissimilarity of females.
C. Clprln was confounded by lliibncr, Cramer, and others willi the C. Lurra of Fabricius ;
iliibner, moreover, showed a want of care in naming his new and allied species C. Neoci/2)rw (sic).

The male of this species is wretchedly ligurcd in Donovan's Insects of India (pi. 3G, tig. I) as
P. Cocnlia, and I am glad of an opportunity of figuring the two sexes together. The Fabrician
diagnosis of the female, given above, is somewhat vague ; the " punctis quatuor ocellaribus llavis "
probably refers to the four indistinct ocellations nearest to the apex of hindwings. The fuller
description says, " Posticse fulvaj punctis quatuor oblongis flavis pupilla nigra, versus marginem
striga obsoleta, fusca," &c. It is possible that these ocellated markings were better defined in the
Fabrician type. We have a poor specimen of the female in the Collection of the British Jfuseum
from Ashanti : I formerly supposed the male to be the £. Thcofjnis of llewitson, which now proves
to be a distinct, but nearly allied species ; the first words of the Fabrician description, " Statura
omnino pnccedciitis," show the near relationship between his P. Cocalia and P. Mardania.

This magnificent species is iutciineJiatc between i>. Luclna and li. lunuluia ; it belongs to tho
most elaborately ornamented genus of the Saiurni'uhv, and in many of its markings forcibly reminds
one of the Argus pheasant among birds ; the disposition of the bands on the basal area of the
frontwings produces an effect very siniihir to tlmt seen on the feathers of many pheasants, whilst
the submaigitial spots, delicately shaded so as to resemble shells of the genus Ci/prcea, and bounded
internallj' by a series of wavy black bars, produce an effect scarcely surpassed bj' the ball-and-socket
feathers of the Argus pheasant (See Darwin's Descent of !Man, and Selection in Kelation to Sex,
Vol. ii., p. 143, fig. 56). Speaking of the probable development of the ball-and-socket ocelli through
the agency of sexual selection, Jlr. Darwin remarks, — " No one, I presume, will attribute the shading,
which has excited the admiration of many experienced artists, to chance — to the fortuitous concourse
of atoms of colouring matter." " In order to discover how the ocelli have been developed, we cannot
look to a long line of progenitors, nor to various closely allied forms, for such do not now exist. But,
fortunately, the several feathers on the wing suffice to give us a clue to the problem, and thej- jirove to
demonstration that a gradation is at least possible from a mere spot to a finished ball-and-socket
ocellus."
Now, as with the Argus pheasant, the wing of my Bmhmaia, in its several internervular
divisions, exhibits a gradation which is a complete key to the development of the egg-like spots near
the outer margin ; the anal sjiots of the frontwings and tlie ai>ical .spots of the hindwings remain

almost in their primitive condition, and prove that the beautifully shaped ocelli arc the result of the
iiiodilication of three of the discal bands witii their interspaces ; tlie central band is widened and toned
down in colour, and the irregularities of the two outer bands modified into a regular arch, and then wc
get ocelli such as the fourth on the frontwings ; now comes tiie most difficult point — the introduction
of light, but looking at the third ocellus of the hindwings we see the internervular fold of a whitey-
brown colour which Ixjcoraes white in the fourth ocellus, is modilied into a small white spot in the
hfth, and into a large elongate spot in the sixth ; thus we see that, if necessary, the three black bands
with their interspaces, immediately following the central white band, could as c;jsily be modilied into a
second scries of oviform ocelli.
But now the question arises — Is there any Bra/nnivn entirely destitute of these remarkable
ocellations ? To this I can only reply that at present I do not know of any ; it is however an
imjjortiint fact that li. Swanzii and li. Litciwi are the only species that have brought them to
perfection, wliilst in Brahnuca luniilafft they are entirely wanting to the hindwings ; in li. Orthia and
B. W/iilvi they appear to have been produced by the modification of two only of the discal bars, and
therefore more nearly resemble drops of dirty water than oviform ocelli.
Supposing that the above ocelli have been produced by sexual selection, as I am inclined to
believe, from the fact that there are slight differences between those of the male and female in Ji.
Certhi'i (the only species of which I have seen both sexes), I can conjecture how this action may have
come into play : it will be clear, at least to every artistic eye, that the ocelli upon the opposite wings
are lighted up from opposite directions, and therefore, taken together, are incorrectly shaded ; it is also
manifest that, not only would some of the ocelli be hidden when the moth was at rest, but in that
condition it could never charm its partner ; however, the habits of many of the day-flying moths, .to
which this genus in all probability belongs, have guided me to what I think may be the correct
solution of the difficulty — the females of many of these moths when fresh remain motionless, whilst
their admirers, sometimes in numbers, fly round them ; very many moths when approaching the female
swing up and down with a pendulum motion behind her, gradually shortening the movement as
they near the prize ; in this kind of flight the female would only see two wings perfectly at the end of
each swing, and it would be desirable that these wings should be correctly shaded, as wouM be the
case with Bntlimiva Sicniizii.
I am doubtful about the accuracy of the white markings in the central black patch of the front-
wings, the specimen from which I took my figure being somewhat rubbed.
A curious coloured ocellus in course of formation may be seen in fig. 3 of the same jilate, whilst
on pi. xxxi. fig. 1, an interesting alierration of Roiifikosonui CerM, in which most of the usual black
spots are converted into glossy blue, has retained two of these spots in a transitional state, and thus
given us a clue to the probable development of the ordinary ocelli so common on S'lii/ridiaii butterflies,
and to the origin of the ring-like markings in the discoidal cell so universal in the allied genera
£uri/j)JieHe Aterica, Ilnrmn, Ailoli'ts, &c.

This interesting variety only ilitlers from the normal form in the colour of the spots on the
iinjcr-surlijce, whicli in tlie tyjiical li. Cures are all black, whilst in this form they are mostly blue or

notwitiistanding the number of specinuiis (three of each sex), that this is nothing more than an

(Iviiade-t, was at firet characterised by Dr. IIerricli-Scha;ffer as a variety of C. Thaledrix. Hi.s description
nms ivs follows : — " Nearly allied to T/ialciirin, same size and contoiu', black central spot of frontwings
smaller, encircled with orange red, which circling is connected upon the subcostal with the larger, less
sharply defined, glowing red central patch, wliich reaches as far as the broad orange margin.
The hindwings are glowing orange gradually becoming darker towards the suddenly Ijrighter
margin ; no black spots on the margin.
Underside agrees better with im/mitr, it is orange, finely and densely dusteil with lake-red, the
.spots of similar more clo.soly packed dustings, both the silver .spots arc as small as in llubner's brighter
figure."
In the above description I have only one fault to find — tlie circling of the black spot is connected
with the larger central patch upon the lower disco-cellular, and not on the subcostal nervure. I mercly
mention this because it put me out considerably when determining the species.
" H. Gundlach found several examples of both species (C. Avellaneda and C Thahinfrix), without
intermediates, in some places more of one, in others of the other species. I have more accurately
defined the male in Gorrbl. 1862, p. 119, under 7Vi(//''«/*v'.<. 1 am, however, sorry to say that I have
not yet received the female." H. >Sch. in Corrbl. 1864.

This Ijuing a female of the Marmax group and the sexes of the tawny C'/iaraxiv being alike, it is
uvidently .specifically distinct from C. Pajnieima ^ : many of the above forms of Cliaraxes liavo doubt-
less long existed in Collections as supposed varieties of C. Polyxoia, there lieing a prevailing prejudice
in the minds of many Lepidopterists against the existence of nearly allied species in a group of sucli
bulky butterflies as Clianucs ; however, distinctions founded simjily upon amount of difference are sure
at times to mislead, they arc doubtless productive of confusion in that they lead their advocates to unite
several constant forms under one name, and in defence thereof to utter snch vague Hibernianisms as the
fiillowing — "it is very possible that varieties coming from Para, Brazil, New timnada, Ecuador, iVc
may bo distinct species," tliey are also the cause of endless inconsistencies in that they have no limit-s :
loiistancy therefore is the only sure guide, and since a species cannot be more than diMind, however
dificrent it may be, to ask why it is distinct is to wander out of the fields of nomenclature into those of
nat\uc and philosophy, a local form therefore is .systematically a species ; it is moreover a .species
iiidiiriillij. for the best test of a si)ecies is its disinclination to hybridize with its allies, which a lucal form
FAMII.V NVMril.Vl.lD.E. 101
riinnot do, whilst what is called a tnio sj^'cii-s might ilo it Init will not, hence it follows that the local
I'onu is in this n's])ect the better sjiecii-s of the two: in the present instance, I consider that the tawny
Charaxi'ii, which an- locally constant, have a greater right to specific distinction than liave many of the
memlwrs of that variable Sulj-family the Ilfliconimv which arc divided (perhaps rightly) by the tint of
a wing or the colonring of an antiMina. I liave seen a vast number of C'/inraxfJi Pna///ioti, collected by
one gentleman in IJonibay, and none of them exhibited any tendency to vary ; Mr. Walker purchased
the residuum of Mr. Lowe's Bornean Collection and obtained sixt<;en male specimens of C. Ilurpax,
which I have examined and found all the character constant ; in many of the Chinese sliow-boxes one
sees shattered specimens of C. Polijxvna exhiliiting no variation ; and lastly, all Felder's species are ea.sily
recognizable as soon as specini'iw -xy ulitained from his localities.

This very beautiful species was for many years confouudeil with C. Anjantc, the two males being
very simiLir ; the P. Lurra of Fabiicius was supposed to be the female of C. Philea, an insect to which
the Fabrician description in no way applies; the diagnosis runs thus — " Papilio (D.) Larra. Alis
r. it\nidatis, int«gurrimis, fulvis, margine nigris ; suVjtus pallid ioribus, punctis duobus argenteis."
M. Menetries (Bull. Soc. Imp. de Mosc. 5, p. 296) remarks — " M. Godart in the sujijilement p. 8((.')
has reunited this species to the prece<ling" (Col. Philea) "but I think \vrongly, for in very many
individuals that I have had to o.xaniine at one time, the chariicturs of C. Larra have always licen
constant."
That P. Hcritilia is identical with C. Larra S there can be no doubt, for Cramer says that it ha.s
■ nil the undersurface of the wings, two small silvery white spots" and Herbst adds " the upperwings
have a very narrow black margin" (upperside), thus distinguishing it from C. Argante which he
describes thus — " All the wings on the upjier surface reddish yellow, the hind margin a little .spotted
with brown."
In Perry's Arcana there is a very amusing description of the female under the name of Papilio
Volcanica which he -states to be " a native of the Kio de la Plata in South America, ami of Peru," lie
then adds — " The back is yellow, spotted with black and brown spots, irregularly placed. The under-
side coloured with tlie most splendid orange tints, nuxed with red, and of a light bro^vn ; small and
large circular pellets, of a pale brown, and scattered unequally with black netted lines which cover the
.<kin. The whole texture of this curious fly exliibits to a fanciful and capricious mind the representation
of a volcano or burning mountain, with balls of fire, and burning streams of lava, rising amongst the
smoke. The lower fly* resembles a soil of sulphur tint of a brown ami liurnt appearance, with several
orifices placed at intervals. If imagination can be indulged so far, we may call to mind the description
of .Sir "William Hamilton, in his travels in the vicinity of Mount Vesuvius, at the time of an eruption.
Balls of fire were seen spreading over tlic illuminated scene, mounting high in the air, and falling near
to his feet. Elvers of red hot lava, running in red lines, were stopped for some time by a valley, then
taking its course through lakes and pools, till it arrived at last at the sea, and buried its heat in the
deep."

This species, acconling to Erichsoii, occurs alun;^' witli C. MntriUlnii ami C. Entdw and, like them,
migrates in vast hordes ; the frequent mention made by tr.ivellei's of innumerable liosts of individuals,

This species has been confounded by M. Lucas and others with C Aiyuiitr, and apparently with
C. Orhig by Dr. Henich-Schiifler, who says that " no other species has the remarkable orange ba.sal
half of the frontwings of the male.
The chrysalis figured came in the Kaden (.'oUeclion, associatcil witli C. A;/i(rtf/ii' : attached to it,
however, is a label bearing the following note — "Aricia nach 21 Tagen, auf Carsia " ; from which I
gather that the chrysalis was found upon a species of C'lixiu, and after 21 days jiroduced C. Arlci/r of

I have noticed this species at p. lO'J of my Catalogue of Fabrician lli\irnal l^pidopteni : .Mr.
W. 11. Kdwaiils of W. Virginia having decided in his liuttertlies of X. America tliat it is nnipicstionably
an Anjijiiiii" allieil to A. IJi'iint, notwithstanding the important discrejianeies wliicji Heer points out.

'I'liat it may hoar soiiKi rlistnnt rulationshii) lo A. Dlmia is quite possible, but tliat it is " [ilaiiily an
AnjyiwU" \a <\\\\iQ another thing; to my miiul it is jilainly a I'(iHfj*w/, probably a ./(/«"///'/ near to
./. Iliilniiia (see fig. G) ; and I think some points in I leer's description (of whieh Mr. ]>hvaiils takes no
notice) are very important, as evidencing its near relationship to J. Iliihiiiin rather than to A. Diaint.
He says — "liings des Randes bemerken wir ein Keilie (nemlich G) von riindiii, hellen Flecken und
zwar liegt jc zwischen zwei Ding.sadern ein soldier Fleck, welclie das ganze Keld zwischen ilen Adi-rn
auslullt. ]■> reicht die.ser lielle Fleck nicht liis zum Fliigelrande, wolchcr wieder ilunkler graubraun
gefiirbt i.st. In der Mitte Jedes Fleekens legt ein schwarzer, runder Punkt ; oh dieser noch eiiien
\veis.sen Aiigeiipunkt besessen habe oder nicht, ist nicht mit Sicherheit zu ernihteln, doeh ist es
wahrscheiidich, indem wenigstens bei zwei die-ser Punkte in der ^litte eine kleine, hellei-e Stelle
wahrznnehnien ist. Diese hellen Aiigentleekeii .scheinen von keincni schwarzen King eingel'asst zii sein."
The ocelli are well .'ihowii in lleer's figure, but in the wo<idcuts by Lycll and I'jlwanls, whieli
have in other respects been made nuicli darker than the original, the inilication of the lower edge of tlie
ocelli has been omitted altogether, and, consequently, the resemblance to the six^cies of Jinwuin is
rendered less evident. I think it just jios.sible, from the great resenililanee which I'. A/turiini of Ileer
beai's to the under.^urface of J. llediiiiia, that it is flic reverse of /. Pbitu.
In ciiiiehuling my observations on these three butterflies, I would express my thanks to Mr.
Charleswurth for the use which he has jierniittc'd me to make of his highly interesting novelty, and for
the opportunity whidi he li.is thus given me of illustrating my [irevious remarks on the two s]i<'cies
described bv lloisduval ami Heer.

The form C. Jiuisiliint/ii cannot rank as a species, a complete transitional .series in Mr. Salvin's
Ciillection proves it to be simply an albino form of C. Utalirn.

much in c-i.louring. that .scarcely two e.xam|)les resemble one another."

Dr. Boi.sduval's premature conclusion resiiecting tliis species has been tlie eau.se of cousidendde
c()nfusion. Poey (in the Hist. Nat. de Cuba, 1, p. 196, 1851) publishes the following remarks:—
" Mr. Boisduval has referred to the female of this s])ecies (C. Orhis) the Gifhix Gchtrtiami of Swainson;
lie, however, retains my name, whicli is later, placing that of Swainson in the synonymy ; tlie authority
of Mr. Boisduval is of the greater weight because he is one of those who have, in our time, been most
indefatigable in the study of th(^ Lejiidopt(^ra, and 1 suspect gooil reasons have not been wanting for his
acting as he has done; tlie l'oIl<iwing have occunvd to me. There are many species of the Eiilmlf and
Orlm group whoso females do not exhibit any dilference, and the species can only be satisfactorily
di.stinguished when one knows the male :* I my.^elf, if unable to shew the male, female, caterpillar, and
chry.salis, cuuld not .se]iaratc (Mi/k from Kiilii//c. 'I'liis may be seen in the Piiiiihiik, mIiIcIi Swain.son
* No statement more surprising than this could liave been made ; the EuhuU and Orhis giouj s being quite dis-
linet, and tlie males tlirmigliout the genus licing far more similar than the females. — .\. G. B.

_iiix-.s m his Lepiiloptera of Asia,* since it in no rospect (HUlts from tin; funiiilc of (Jrlii^. The figiuvs
of Swainson, thougli brilliant in hue, are not much like the natural colourinf; ; tliis is what Boistluval
justly observes in the G18th i)a},'e of his HLstory of LopiJopt«ra, and one may notice it in the manner
in which the curveil lines of atoms aiv shewn on the under-siirface of his C. Godartiana. If indeed we
could have a {Guarantee that the original is like what !Mr. Swainson lias painted, wi' shoid'l be able tfi
•(-•■sert that it is a distinct sijecies.
" I am ijjnonint of the habitat of Gixlurtldiia, and if the autlmr did mention it I forgot to inukc
A utjte of it wlii'H his work was at my disposiil ; if it shoidd turn out to be Asiatic like his Ponwii't w.'
should then have another n-ason for iloubting its identity \rith C. Orbix."
I have quoted tlie above remarks to shew how carelessly and unfairly an author max U: criticised
by those who are ignorant of his species; I suppose few more accurate draughtsmen ever existed
than Swainson. JJr. Thon, in a highly commendatory notice of the " Zoological Illustrations" (Entom.
Arch., Vol. I., p. 89, IH29), justly remarks that tliis work is "splendid auf schonstes Velinpapier
gednickt und mit Farbe, wie wir Deutsche wenig sehen, rein und lebhaft sorgfiiltig coloiirt, keinem
•hiiUchiii AVi'rke vergleichbar, ausser einem Exemplar der Insekten lielustigungen von Ri'iwh Hand."
Dr. lioisduval's supposition has been boldly ailopted by Dr. Herrich-SchafTer (Corr-blatt, i». Ifi'J.

In all probability, when we know more of the early stages of the above four genenx they will be
found to ditfer considerably ; a comparison of the pupa of C. florella with those of C P/iilea, P. minn^-

* The genus Pliabe, used in C'ulcoj>lera, is more recent.
t This gvnas not hnving been pn-viously adopted, it is allow,il)le to take any of the ajKrii's cited as the type : I
therefore take one from the centre of the genus.

Tlie Genus Tmohis will doubtless eventually have to be subdivided ; many of the species being
cvidcntl}' not strictly typical : however, as I have not time at present to examine critically the whole of
the Tliichiid group of the Th<-clin<e, I have jjrovisionally contented niy.se,]f with the few genera created
by Hiibner, some of which differ so strikingly in ncuratiou, palpi, auil dtlur inipnrtant generic cha-
racters, that it is strange tliat they .should v\n have been ]ilaced together.
(ienera so apparent to the eye, botli in marking and lorni, as Panthiades, AtlideK, TherituK. an<l
Mitlinis are ciisily separated : the most curi(nis thing, however, is that our British Lepidoptorists liave
never discovered the palpable structural dilference between 'Ilicdd and Strynwii, whilst at the same
time Ihi'V have kept as distinct such genera a.s Vuvckhh and Grapfn.

but used the following words in his ileseription — *' Antenmv elavii elongnt;i, s;ipius uncinata " ; these words at oiue lix
the type as soniewliere amongst the Ile.ijKricc urbicola; (notwithstanding the fact that, in his Systenia Glossatorum,
Kiibricius refers it to the rurahs); the Uesjicria of Cuvier has for its type il. Malru- (us Mr. Crotoh has pointed out
< 'ist. ICnt. p. 62) ; but Pi/rgus Maiv(c (of all the ffc.i]>eri<i urbicola;) is about the worst to have ehosen as the type, for it
r/')/'.v Hoi_/f« the Fabrician description ; therefore it is clear that /". -l/rt/i'tt; could not have crossed the mind of Fabricius
wlien he penned his description, and cannot be his tyjie : later authors have referred the ilark coloured species of
J'liiii/ihilu and Cari/stns to JlcajKrin, evidently taking ff. E-icIainatioiis as the type, it being the first s]H-cips which he
desi-ribes under his urbicola, but as II. Exclamalionis turns out to be an Jftuunf and not. as fornieily sui>posed, a
I'nmiihila I have taken /. Exclamationis as the tJ^)e.
The first of the IlesjKria; Huralcs is a species of the family Ei-ijeiniiln-.

redescribeil ; \ntli sucli localities ami without examples of the Chilian species to compare with them, it
was iin|)ossihle to f^uess that they could be the species describetl by IJlanchard iV: fJucrin : Suli/nif
fn'gfiii of lUancliai'd is a distiuct s]>ecies and may be named <S. Rcdii.
The genus IStihomnrji/id is interniediati^ in cliaracter between E/iiia and Pedal iodi's, from the
former it differs in having the lower discu-cellular of secondaries obliiiue, with a slight central'angle :
in El ilia it is transverse and has a very acute angle in the centre : in Pedal lodes it is carried stniighf
across transversely without any angle, consei|uently this veinlct is in Pudaliudri^ considerably sbnrlcr
than in the two others.
